Jacqueline Laurita is returning – briefly – at the end of this season when filming resumes to capture Teresa Giudice‘s sentencing drama. Jacqueline revealed that she’ll actually just be filming to support season extra Kathy Wakile‘s newest dessert launch, but rumor has it the real reason producers pulled Jacqueline in was in the hopes of a showdown with Dina!

Jacqueline has also remained friendly with Teresa after the two made amends last season, so presumably they were hoping both Dina and Jacqueline could film together in support of their friend as she deals with her sentencing news. Well – Dina was not havin’ any of that! What’s that zen you speak of? More like ignore what you don’t want to see! The usual.

After failing to simply sell the home, the Gorgas opted to enter into a lease-purchase agreement with Kai Patterson. Now the couple is trying to force Patterson to leave the home over failure to pay the agreed upon monthly price.

Teresa put on her little black dress and strappy heels, practiced her head tilt in the mirror and and headed out to promote Fabellini with her fans. Mrs. Juicy signed bottles and posed for photos at Son of Cubano in New Jersey. See some of the pics below!

So this may have been the shortest reality TV friendship of all time! Amber Marchese and Nicole Napolitano are NOT FRIENDS. Nicole has terminated her friendship after “Scamber” lied about her breaking up a marriage. She also claims she didn’t yank Amber’s hair without reason – Amber swatted her hand away from her face, and Nicole was like so totally justified in yanking Amber’s hair out. These new Real Housewives Of New Jerseygirls are disturbing #TooThirsty

Still, Nicole is glad this episode showed her Amber’s true colors. “Happy this episode at Bobby’s house is over. Again this was supposed to be a fun-filled night for all…along with a chance to hear an apology that now (knowing SCAMBER’S true character) I realize she had no intention of giving.”

“This was the first time ever that Bobby and I were hosting a party at his home. I never wanted it to go there,” Nicole admits. “We had our friends who are police officers and fellow firefighters from our town attend, and I would have never wanted to put them in a bad position. I was happy to hear Melissa [Gorga] state when she met Amber for lunch how Amber was the aggressive one and how she whacked my hand first. Amazing how when the Mar-crazies left the party it was like all the evil was swept out of the house. The black cloud had lifted!”

If you have not been watching, first shame on you! Second you have missed some hair-pulling, screaming antics, reminiscent of a certain season one table-flipping brawl. And, of course, it all started with a rumor, innocently spread between friends. I think Amber would agree when I say, I bet she wishes she would have never opened her mouth to Melissa Gorga that day.

Well, well – what have we here! A little birdie that went to the press just one day after a story emerged that her family was in major financial trouble? Or just a mere coincidence.

Melissa Gorga‘s book has been fraught with controversy and negative reviews, and though it never even came close to the bestseller list (in fact it was actually panned for seeming to advocate such concepts as marital rape!), a new report claims Melissa is earning big from her book. And that income, coupled with her salary from Real Housewives Of New Jersey, is pulling the family out from financial failure. Interesting…

“Melissa Gorga is making over $1 million right now. Her salary and her book sales have pushed her into a 7-figure earning bracket,” a source tellsTom Murro via Radar.

It seems all is not well in Poison Paradise! Melissa Gorga may be stuck in that “disgusting” rental for a while.

Reports are emerging that the Gorgas financial problems are far worse than it appears and Joe Gorga is borrowing money from friends, family, and co-workers to keep his businesses and personal life afloat.

Joe reportedly sunk “millions” (of pennies?) into his document garbage business, and the couple is having a helluva time “selling” their house (aka lease-to-own disaster). Melissa was just forced to give up her Bentley after the $5,000 lease was too expensive. A source claims the couple was only leasing it for Real Housewives Of New Jersey, anyway!
